What causes pain in the lower left abdomen in women?

Pain in the lower left abdomen in women may be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, ovarian tumors, or other reasons.

1. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)

Pelvic inflammatory disease is one of the more common conditions affecting women. After onset, it typically causes localized tenderness and uterine tenderness. Treatment usually involves antibiotic medications, such as clindamycin tablets or penicillin tablets, taken under a doctor's guidance.

2. Adnexitis

Adnexitis generally causes lower abdominal pain, which may occur on both sides or only one side. Pain may become a dull ache, especially after physical activity. It can usually be relieved with antibiotic medications, such as levofloxacin hydrochloride tablets or penicillin tablets, selected under medical supervision.

3. Ovarian Tumor

Ovarian tumors may cause lower abdominal pain. These tumors often develop due to inflammation and may also be related to poor personal hygiene. Treatment may involve surgery, performed under a doctor’s recommendation.

Besides these gynecological causes, lower abdominal pain cannot entirely rule out intestinal diseases. It is advisable to visit a hospital for relevant examinations and receive appropriate treatment accordingly.
